Answer:

B)Many of the revivalists of the Second Great Awakening campaigned against slavery.

Explanation:

The Second Great Awakening, which occurred in the period from the 1790s to the 1840s, was the second wave of religious revival in the United States of America and consisted of the renewed personal salvation experienced in revival meetings of the faith.

The movement encouraged an active evangelical attitude, which later broke out in American life through lawsuits such as prison reform, women's suffrage, abolitionist movement and others.
